Chapter 140 An acquaintance has arrived
The midday sun was so hot that Lou Xiao was sweating all over.
Finally, the coldness accumulated in the underground and underground rivers was removed, and my muscles and bones became more active.
She was like a big cat that had had enough rest, squinting her eyes lazily.
The vitality that sunshine brings to people is irreplaceable by anything.
She had also had enough of Mo Jingchun's beautiful body lines.
With his thick skin and unbridled personality, who would have thought that he could really be polite and trustworthy at this moment?
Even though I knew she was not far away, I never looked back.
It was hard to imagine him trying his best to seduce her before.
At that time, she could not appreciate his charm and was indifferent.
At this time, Mo Jingchun had his back to her, with black hair and silver ornaments covering his back.
The last strand of hair falls on the extremely tightened lower back, and further down, the dimple of the waist is faintly visible in the totem.
Lou Xiao used her five fingers to comb her hair and straightened it out. She tilted her head to admire his back while thinking about how to ask him questions.
My hair was half dry, and there seemed to be some movement in the forest.
Lou Xiao, whose inner strength was gradually recovering, raised his head and concentrated his mind,
He looked around again, thought for a moment, stood up, and was about to pick up his clothes and put them on.
The rumbling in her stomach made her not want to move at all.
She can't stand hunger the most.
Not knowing how long it had been since she had eaten, Lou Xiao began to miss the various imperial delicacies that her senior sister had given her when she was in the palace.
very hungry.
She was so hungry that she didn't even bother to move even when someone was quietly approaching her.
But Mo Jingchun obviously didn't know yet.
He seemed to hear that Lou Xiao was hungry, and thought of the poisonous insect that was embedded in her tendons and was inseparable from her body, and felt a little worried.
Will it be moved because of hunger?
Fearing that she might accidentally trigger the poisonous insect's temper, Mo Jingchun tried to ask her if she had ever felt unwell before.
"Are you...are you hungry? Are you feeling any other discomfort?"
Mo Jingchun's voice became much weaker, and Lou Xiao barely heard it, but didn't pay much attention to it.
"You must feel uncomfortable when you are hungry... you have no strength. Are your clothes dry? Put them on."
She said it lightly, but her eyes were fixed on the direction of the person who was approaching slowly.
She wanted to see who these people were, as they were surrounded as soon as they came out of the pond in the deep mountains and old forests.
She still has some strength left, and if the invaders have bad intentions, she can only kill them.
It had been a long time since anyone had died. It was just bad luck for the man to run into her when she was very hungry.
I was in a very bad mood and didn't want to say anything more. I just killed him when I said I would.
Lou Xiao's face fell, and he just stared at the lush bushes a few steps away.
Someone pushed aside the branches and walked forward. Is he an enemy or a friend?
Mo Jingchun seemed to say something again, but Lou Xiao was in no mood to listen.
Looking at the swaying branches with a cool gaze, a tall figure gradually became clear.
In the sunlight, the lush curly hair is tied in a golden hair crown, and a few strands of hair playfully fall down on the eyebrows and temples.
Those eyes that are different from ordinary people are particularly suitable in the forest, wild and untamable.
When I saw her, my eyes lit up, and my surprise was mixed with a bit of relief and a bit of sadness.
Lou Xiao's tense nerves relaxed instantly when her eyes met the other person's, and were replaced by a lot of questions.
Why is he here?
"Someone, take him down!"
Xiao Zhengdu was dressed in a purple and gold brocade robe, his eyes fixed on Lou Xiao who was sitting casually on the ground with her clothes disheveled and revealing a large area of skin.
He didn't even look at Mo Jingchun on the other side.
The guards who jumped out of the forest were well-equipped and immediately pressed Mo Jingchun, who was getting dressed without knowing what was going on, down on the mossy stone.
Lou Xiao couldn't help but speak out, "He was seriously injured, there's no need to do this."
Seeing Xiao Zhengdu approaching step by step, Lou Xiao did not notice the low pressure on him. All she could think about now was -
"Xiao Zhengdu, do you have anything to eat?"
food?
Xiao Zhengdu had a mocking look in his eyes and didn't say a single good word.
"Duke Zhenguo has a good appetite. I have been patrolling the mountains for several days and have not dared to stop. I never thought that you were enjoying yourself in the forest without knowing the season."
Lou Xiao was about to speak when Xiao Zhengdu raised his hand and a servant handed her a cloak and threw it at her head from two steps away.
"A man and a woman alone, in the wilderness, with tattered clothes—"
After tying up Mo Jingchun, one of them leaned forward and whispered something in his ear.
Xiao Zhengdu's face turned even uglier, "How shameful!"
His cloak covered his entire head and face. Lou Xiao grabbed the cloak with both hands and shook it open, but was in no hurry to put it on.
Instead, he was surprised by Xiao Zhengdu's pedantic remarks. When did he know the word "propriety"?
"What's wrong with you? Did you take the wrong medicine?"
After saying this, I remembered that he was not staying in the capital at this time. There must be a reason for his sudden appearance here. He stood in front of me with his hands behind his back.
"By the way, why are you here?"
It would be fine if she didn't mention it, but when she did, Xiao Zhengdu couldn't help getting angry.
"Li Huaiqing sent an urgent letter to the capital, saying that you were in a desperate situation and your life might be in danger.
I also beg Your Majesty to forgive me for transferring soldiers stationed several miles away, explaining that I had no choice but to do so in an emergency.
Seeing her movements freeze, it seemed that she just realized the current situation.
The anger in his chest was directed at him again, "Does the Duke of Zhenguo know how much impact your accident has caused?"
They were anxious and worried day and night.
But she was having a great time in the forest with a naked man, unaware of what was happening in the world.
How could Xiao Zhengdu not be angry?
Lou Xiao was speechless. For the first time, she realized the seriousness of the matter.
Asking the great King Youshan to bring people to rescue him personally, Senior Sister was so anxious that she didn't know how anxious she was.
Lou Xiao tied on his cloak and reached out, "Hurry up and give me a pen and paper. I want to write a letter of safety to His Majesty—"
Xiao Zhengdu took a step forward and stretched out a hand to help her up. Lou Xiao didn't think much and stood up by grabbing his hand.
The man in front of her didn't let her go yet.
"You are exhausted. The Duke of Zhenguo is weak and needs to be nourished."
Seeing his guards bringing the bound "wild man" to him for inspection, Xiao Zhengdu looked disgusted and waved his hand to have him taken away as if his eyes were dirty.
Lou Xiao spoke at the right time, "Find a doctor to see him. I still have something to ask him."
The guard didn't dare to agree and just looked at Xiao Zhengdu.
Lou Xiao also looked at him, and Xiao Zhengdu nodded in agreement. Before he was about to leave, Mo Jingchun raised his head, which had been lowered.
He looked at her with an inexplicably lonely look, but was led further and further away by the guards beside him.
Xiao Zhengdu couldn't bear to see the incomprehensible look in their eyes, so he took a step forward and used his tall body to block them all.
Lou Xiao took the dry food offered by the guard and chewed it with big mouthfuls. It was obvious that he had not eaten for a long time and was very hungry.
Xiao Zhengdu was still standing aside, with his hands behind his back, making a double entendre.
"He can eat any vulgar food. The Duke of Zhenguo must be extremely hungry. He doesn't even choose."
Lou Xiao didn't take it seriously, not understanding his implication. "If you're hungry, of course you can eat whatever you want. Anything else?"
